  • 2. TO COOK THE RISOTTO:

    Open the bag of steamed brown rice, squeezing gently on the bag to break up any large clumps. Add the rice to the pan, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 2-3 mins stirring regularly. Pour in the Parmesan sauce and add the peas. Cook for 1-2 mins. Crumble the feta over the risotto and stir through.

  • TO SERVE:
